Fawcett's team are forced to abandon the expedition after discovering that Murray poured paraffin on their remaining supplies.

Murray survives and, in front of the RGS trustees, accuses Fawcett of abandoning him in the jungle and demands an apology from him. Fawcett elects to resign from the society rather than apologize. Manley dies in the trenches at the Battle of the Somme , and Fawcett is temporarily blinded in a chlorine gas attack.

Jack, Fawcett's eldest son—who had long accused Fawcett of abandoning the family—reconciles with his father as he recovers. In , Fawcett is living in obscurity in Britain. North American interest in exploring the Amazon has reached fever pitch, primarily due to Fawcett's stories of the lost city. The RGS co-funds the expedition at the last moment to maintain British pride. Fawcett shows Sir John Scott Keltie a compass, informing Keltie that should he Fawcett find the lost city, the compass will be sent back to Britain.

Fawcett and his son intend to go alone this time, traveling as light as they can for up to three years in order to find "Z". Fawcett invites Costin, but he declines.

The A to Z of French Cinema

Fawcett and Jack are attacked by natives and escape, only to be ambushed again. This second tribe gives the Fawcetts a fair hearing, but are puzzled by them, noticing that their spirits aren't wholly of their own world but also not wholly of the Amazon. They declare that the spirits of the Fawcetts "must belong" somewhere and they will help them find their rightful place. Fawcett and Jack are drugged during a ceremony and carried away. Some years later, Nina Fawcett meets with Keltie, claiming she has heard that Fawcett and Jack are still alive and are living among tribespeople. The RGS, having sent more than a hundred people to search for Fawcett in the intervening years, declines to send another expedition.

Keltie advises Nina to come to terms with her husband's death, but she refuses. Nina instead opens her purse, to give Keltie the compass Fawcett had promised to send were he to have found the lost city. In February , James Gray was hired by Paramount Pictures and Plan B Entertainment to write and direct the film based on David Grann's book , but the film remained in development for six years. Based on his experience on previous projects, Gray was not initially sure why Plan B sent him the book.

So I had no idea why the people at Plan B decided to send me this book, because nothing in my prior work had shown that I could do anything like this. Maybe it was an act of madness on their part. In a interview with IndieWire , Gray admitted that he had developed the script for a while before moving toward production.

And you want to get it right. It's a very, very scary proposition to go into the jungle and all that.
